Really quite liked this. Never thought I was much of a Centipede fan, but this, P. O. D & Bug Blaster prove otherwise

An awesome centipede variant! I can understand that it was a success in USA back in the days... This game alone catapulted Jeff minter to fame. But the best gridrunner, in my opinion is the vic20's one, try it!

The ship on the cover looks a lot like an r9

Never lived long enough on level 31 to see the last centipede-thing come on. Whatta evilly hard game! I liked it though...

One of the first games I played on the C64 was this fast little centipede clone.

Great fun at the time and still challenging now... Unless you know about the 'sweet spot' on the left side of the grid.

This horrible game seem to spread all over my privated tapes and disks. Avoid, avoid...

Another overrated Jeff Minter game. Poor overall and zero game-play. My god, that man released a lot of crap...

Of of the first computer games I've ever played in my live. It's not jeff's masterpiece but still a classic to be remebered.

I 1st played this on the Vic20 and to be quiet honest worked better on that machine than the C64 - Still a great blast and Jeff Minter was and is a very talented programmer - Warped maybe with all his later games with Llamas and goats and things - but you cant really say a bad word against him as a programmer - look at the split scrolling routines he did in his later games and innovative character graphic designs - A top notch programmer and a person who looked for gameplay over graphics
